Last week pupils completed and handed-in homework for the first time this year. Thank you for your support in making sure that pupils completed homework successfully and for your patience as we made sure our checking of homework was accurate.
Below you will find information and updates to guide you through the next few weeks.
Homework
Pupils have two copies of their homework timetable – one for them and one for their parents so that you know exactly what they need to do each day. Pupils should spend at least one hour every day completing homework tasks and any incomplete homework will result in pupils staying behind at the end of the school day to complete it.
Homework club runs between 3-4pm each day for pupils who wish to complete their homework at school and for pupils who need help accessing their homework.
Pupils made a great start last week. Below you can see who in each year group achieved the highest XP (Sparx) and who answered the most questions correctly (Century).
